Default Codes p1518-----problem?

I JUST INSTALLED HEADERS AND HAVE NOT HAD THE CAR TUNED YET. IT KEEPS THROWING THE P1518 CODE AND SAYS TO REDUCE ENGINE POWER. I HAVE A NEW BATTERY. WHAT COULD BE THE PROBLEM? PLEASE HELP THANKS,

Not sure why you started another thread for the same problem. Also, in the other thread, you never answered questions asked by 87SAM:

Since you looked up the codes, what inspections have you made thus far? There is a good chance that one or more of your plug wires is not attached securely, or a broken plug. What electrical connections did you disturb during the install, ground post on the block, starter, battery?
